Argunet Debates

Argument: application

Reasoning in ethics is not excluded from the holism of reasons.

  1. Morality may be distinguished by its subject matter, but moral thought does not have a distinctive structure.
  2. What is a reason in one case may be no reason at all in another, or even a reason on the other side.
  3. Moral reasons are reasons for or against actions.
  4. In ethics, a feature that makes one action better can make another one worse, and make no difference at all to a third.
